Spend 3-4 hours as a black-furred monster girl, learning Very Important Lessons about mental health issues as you explore a dreamy sunken city and interact with various manifestations of depression, self doubt, family strife and other fun stuff. Given the short length of the game, the lessons are a bit heavy-handed and forced but it does do a decent job of expressing that there's no single solution to these things. The graphics and design are well done, the Depression Kaiju are impressive, it all fit together nicely and there's enough game play to keep you moving but it's definitely in service to the story. I thought it was a fine enough way to spend four hours but I'd have a hard time telling someone else to spend that time on some dark stuff versus "Shooting alien zombies for four hours is good fun". If you're willing to play for the experience, you'll likely find it worth the time.
